Whether you've been studying Italian for years or are currently mastering the art of "my name is," these 10 expressions are an essential addition to any vocabulary. You won't find them in Italian books, but you'll hear them all over the streets. Understanding them will give you a huge boost in comprehension. Using them will make you much more fun to talk to.
1. Che palle! (keh PAL-leh)
Translated word for word as, "What balls!" it's the short and sweet equivalent to "What a pain in the ass!" Tack it onto the end of any annoying activity for added emphasis: "We have to climb all those stairs? Che palle!" or mumble it under your breath when someone causes you general agitation: "Put a scarf on or you'll get pneumonia!" Che palle.
